Anthony Edward Sowell was supposed to be a low risk inmate after his release from prison in June of 2005. He had served 15 years in prison for rape. Anthony Sowell moved in with family directly following his release. He moved into a Cleveland home on Imperial Avenue. Soon, residents started to complain about a pungent odor coming from Anthony’s home. Sowell blamed the source of the odor on a nearby sausage factory, and a new sewage pipe that had just been put in. Police then began to get reports of missing women, all from around the same area. Police received reports of a naked woman falling from the house, assault, and attempted rape. Finally, on Halloween 2009, Anthony was arrested after a third complaint of assault was filed. Police officials went to Sowell’s house and unearthed the bodies of 11 women. Anthony Sowell’s first appearance in trial was on May 2nd. 2011. Sowell’s case is still under review to date. Many people believe police overlooked many of the complaints and red flags. Spectators believe that early signs could have prevented the release of such a lethal sexual predator.

Anthony Sowell was born in East Cleveland on August 19th. 1959. He was born into a working class family. His father worked in the construction field and his mother worked at a local dry-cleaner. Anthony’s father soon abandoned the family but nonetheless, Anthony still saw constant violence as a norm in his family. Anthony’s seven cousins soon moved in after the death of their mother. He watched his twin cousins be forced to strip down. They then were tied up with an extension cord and whipped with the end of it. As Anthony grew older, he was teased and bullied by his friends. It is reported that Anthony did not get involved in any organized sports or extra curricular activities. As a preteen, Sowell would repeatedly take his cousin to an upstairs bedroom and force her to engage in sexual activities. His cousin, Leona, tried to report the crimes to authorities, but no one listened to her as dismissed the allegations. According to his cousin, she was being raped almost everyday. By the time Anthony reached high school he discovered that he would not have the enough credits to graduate so he joined the U.S. Marine Corps in 1978.

Anthony was 19 years old when he joined the military. Military life included time spent in South Carolina, North Carolina, California, and Okinawa, Japan. While in the military, Anthony received his GED and was trained as an electrician. Sowell was in the military for seven years before his honorable discharge on January 18th. 1985. During his military career, Anthony received many honors including a “Good Conduct Medal, with one service star, a Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, a Certificate of Commendation, a Meritorious Mast, and two Letters of Appreciation” (Wikipedia 2011). Although Anthony seemed to do well in the military, it did not take long for the real Anthony to come out.

In 1989, a pregnant woman went to Anthony’s home on her own free will. When she tried to leave, Anthony bound her hands and feet with a belt and a tie and proceeded to gag her with a rag. The woman told officials that he had chocked her to the point of numbness. She told authorities that she thought she was going to die. Sowell was charged with kidnapping, rape, and attempted rape. He plead guilty to attempted rape and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. When Sowell was released in 2005, he went to work in nearby factory. He worked there for two years then quit and collected unemployment compensation and to earn extra money, Anthony would sell scrap metal. During the time Sowell was working at the factory, he began a relationship with the mayor of Cleveland’s niece, Lori Frazier. She moved in with Sowell until 2008 and would frequently comment about the smell coming from...

In this case we get an entire scenario about how the Japan deflation set in, what were the effects of the deflation on the economy as well as on the people of Japan. It also mentions about the various reasons because of which Japan was in such a tight grip of Deflation, Depression, Demographics and Debts Guides us through the steps taken by the government in order to curb this deflation. Imparts a great knowledge to us about the various economic terms like deflation, self-liquidating credit, Non-Self Liquidating Credit and how the people and economy of a country is affected by these.
Free markets economies are subject to cycles. Economic cycles consist of fluctuating periods of economic expansion and contraction as measured by a nation's gross domestic product (GDP). The length of economic cycles (periods of expansion vs. contraction) can vary greatly. The traditional measure of an economic recession is two or more consecutive quarters of falling gross domestic product. There are also economic depressions, which are extended periods of economic contraction such as the Great Depression of the 1930s.
From 1991 through 2001, Japan experienced a period of economic stagnation and price deflation known as "Japan's Lost Decade." While the Japanese economy outgrew this period, it did so at a pace that was much slower than other industrialized nations. During this period, the Japanese economy suffered from both a credit crunch and a liquidity trap....

Currently, more than 95 percent of Mary Kay's independent salespeople place orders via the internet.

THERAC – 25
Aaron James Uy Timosa
BSIT – 4
INTRODUCTION
The Therac-25 was a radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units (the earlier units had been produced in partnership with CGR of France). It was involved in at least six accidents between 1985 and 1987, in which patients were given massive overdoses of radiation, approximately 100 times the intended dose. These accidents highlighted the dangers of software control of safety-critical systems, and they have become a standard casestudy in health informatics and software engineering.
WHAT WAS THERAC -25?
Therac-25 was used in the treatment of cancer. Its purpose was to provide radiation to a specific part of the body and hopefully kill the malignant tumor. The Therac-25 was the third system created under the Therac name by the Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL). The AECL is most famous in Canada for their creation of the CANDU reactors which are world renowned. A Therac-6 and Therac-20 were both used in the treatment of cancer. The number that goes along with the word Therac stands for the maximum amount of mega electron volts (MeV) the machine can dispense. It was believed that the new Therac-25 was much more efficient than Therac-6 and Therac-20. The overall size of the machine was reduced and still allowed for two modes; photon mode and...

...tower operations, great partnership and long-term strategy, the benefits created for students and innovation products to retain high level skilled people is very impressive. All these partnerships and long-term strategies place them in a positive key global role. Training and development schemes create a global platform with the key partnerships created by NATS
QUESTION 4.
It serves a strong platform for any company to have these fundamental elements in place for the company to progress and move forward. These strong strategic components will ensure the global growth of NATS, they have all the important factors in place. The innovation, partnerships and people involved has set on a par of its own. It is by far one of the impressive cast studies I have read, as mentioned we have large state-owned entities currently crumbling due to lack of leadership and skilled individuals who can have the ability to run companies such as NATS and create such a success out of them. This makes me believe we still have a long journey ahead of us when it comes to 1st world countries and the ever-evolving technology, exceptional visions & aims, objectives and strategies.

1.1 Identify each of the stakeholders and how they are affected. What are the main harms and benefits in this case for the different stakeholders based on the current situation?
Stakeholders are every person and organization directly or indirectly involved. This studycase of financial crisis has affected many stakeholders such as banks, employees and their customers. The 2008 crisis is the scariest one after the Great depression. Lord Vicker, who showed the findings of the independent banking commission, argues that in order to keep the banking sector flowing, they need to have high capital, retailing and investments for lending. There were several British companies that were affected in this crisis, for example, Northern Rock and Bradford and Bingley. They were offering up to 125% of ‘Loan to value’ mortgages and loans based on individual’s statements. The institutions were affected by two major problems; they were not able to make high returns on capital and there were too much high level of money deposits.
Americans banks were ahead of others during the crisis as Chinese money was invested with them. They had more open opportunities compared to others during the crisis and they had much more freedom on how to run their businesses. A lot of people who did not have concrete income benefited...
